I don't think there's anything to actually practice. The rituals just amount to being mindful and reviewing your assumptions and mistakes. As far as I can tell, at least. There are some very interesting characters, like John Dee or Newton, who created new systems of finding meaning and rituals that can have significance, but they aren't making any changes in the "real world" like magic is generally assumed to do. But... I guess the genuine test of an alchemist's mastery would have to be found in his alembic. So its I won't rule that stuff out entirely.
